I’m glad these Members of Congress are speaking out. Netanyahu should not demolish these Palestinian homes. raskin.house.gov/2025/11/rask...

Glad J Street is getting involved. www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025...

Neal Katyal's opening volley against Trump's tariffs: "May it please the court: Tariffs are taxes."

Congratulations to Michelle Wu for her reelection as Boston Mayor!!! Blue Tsunami 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Bucks County voters made it clear: They want safe, welcoming, engaging and fully-resourced public schools so every child can thrive. #AFTvotes @AFTPA.bsky.social www.buckscountyherald.com/news/electio...

Voters sent a strong message in this election. The incumbent Sheriff Fred Harran ran on promises to allow ICE into classrooms and communities - and voters rejected that agenda. #AFTvotes @AFTPA.bsky.social whyy.org/articles/ele...

Parents, kids and educators are horrified that a sensitive location, meant to be a space for nurturing and support, was violated by armed officers. 19thnews.org/2025/11/chil...

Voters across PA - even in counties that voted for Trump in 2024 - see that the promises this administration & Congressional Republicans made on affordability and public education haven’t been kept. This is big for working families. @aftpa.bsky.social #AFTvotes levittownnow.com/2025/11/05/v...

Trump's changes to PSLF would implement an ideological litmus test, draining talent from desperately needed jobs that help vulnerable communities & saddling workers with insurmountable debt. www.thecentersquare.com/national/art...

AG James is right. It's illegal and unfair to stop loan forgiveness for eligible borrowers just because they may disagree with the current administration. That's why @AFT.org sued the Trump administration to stop this injustice. thehill.com/homenews/edu...

All the winning Democratic candidates this #Election2025 are focused on what matters to voters: Affordability. By focusing on cleaner energy options, we can create jobs and bring the costs of power and utilities down. www.eenews.net/articles/dem...

I’m glad to see the Supreme Court justices questioning the Trump administration on tariffs. Congress holds the power of the purse, not the President. He cannot unilaterally rewrite the rules of international trade on a whim. www.cnn.com/2025/11/05/p...

Norges Bank Investment Management, like many shareholders & investors in Tesla, is worried that Elon Musk's political activity hurts the brand & puts retirement funds at risk. We shouldn't be rewarding Musk with $1T for his actions. #TakeBackTesla www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Trump & the GOP’s failure to renew the Affordable Care Act tax credits won’t just make healthcare more expensive for families. It will devastate small business owners too. www.npr.org/2025/11/03/n...

Healthcare coverage is the difference between people seeing a doctor and skipping care when they need it. These price hikes are going to leave millions of people poorer and sicker. bsky.app/profile/econ...

Without Congress’s renewal of the Affordable Cre Act tax credits, 1.5 million more Americans will lose their health coverage. We should be making healthcare more affordable and accessible, not less. www.cbpp.org/research/hea...

Exactly. Voters saw that Trump broke his promises to bring down the cost of living, focusing instead on cutting taxes for the rich, shutting down the government & creating economic chaos. They voted for lawmakers who would put working families first. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Americans voted for lower prices and more opportunity. Instead, Trump cut our healthcare and food assistance, put military and masked agents in our communities, and shut the government down for over a month. This isn’t helping anyone. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/05/o...

Republicans betrayed American families who want life to be more affordable. Despite having Trump in the White House and both chambers of Congress, costs are up and the government is shut down. We need leaders who believe in economic opportunity for all. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/05/u...

Voters made it clear: They're tired of Trump's shutdown, corruption, and political revenge. They want lawmakers who care about them & will work to bring down the cost of living - who will protect healthcare, fund the government, and put the people first. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

GOP: "we lost, rather than reflection on why.......we must stop women from voting! Anyone who doesn't support misogynistic, racist, & bigoted policies shouldn't be allowed to vote"........if they keep saying they're going to take away our right to vote, let's see what that gets them in the midterms.

This is a great idea. apple.news/A-GXG0yS4TtO...

It is outrageous ICE is behaving this way, traumatizing our kids and terrorizing families. They are violently grabbing parents in front of families. They deploy tear gas near schools and playgrounds and Halloween parades. Now storming into a daycare. This must stop.

Governor Newsom

Our Cleveland local endorsed in this race because they want a mayor who will fight to protect people’s rights, strengthen public schools and create opportunities for Cleveland’s working families. Congrats on your re-election @justinmbibb.bsky.social!

BREAKING: Mississippi Democrats have now flipped two state Senate seats—putting them on the verge of breaking the Mississippi GOP's supermajority. Theresa Gillespie Isom has defeated Republican opponent Charlie Hoots, who she leads in the current vote tally by about 2-1.

Toledo deserves a leader with a proven record of support for public education and for standing up for working families. Our locals endorsed Mayor Kapszukiewicz because it’s important to have an advocate for education and opportunity in the mayor’s office. Congrats on your re-election!

A moment of silence, please, for the "young men are all MAGA now" narrative. (Source: www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...)

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.” Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

👏Our CA locals supported Prop 50's temporary changes to congressional district maps. This is a repudiation of the president’s cruel, chaotic, corrupt agenda that made working people’s lives harder. It is also a reaffirmation of hope & opportunity in the face of fear & despair. @cftunion.bsky.social

California voters approve Prop 50, NBC News projects — i.e. Gavin Newsom's redistricting plan to knock out multiple Republican-held House seats in response to the Texas redistricting move.

Voters showed up in record numbers to send a message that they want leaders who will tackle the kitchen-table issues they face every day—from education to soaring housing and healthcare costs to the price of groceries, child care and college. www.aft.org/press-releas...

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Our next Mayor

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Dems have won Va with a moderate, have won NJ with a liberal and NYC with a progressive- it’s all about fighting for working people to deal with the cost of living and a repudiation of the cruelty, cronyism and abuses of Trump, Trumpism and his billionaire crew.

Congrats to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and the grassroots movement of supporters for an inspiring, historic campaign. Working people in NYC rejected Cuomo/Trump/Musk to support someone they know will make this city we call home a safer, more affordable place for all families to thrive.

Great news out of PA. Christine Donohue, David Wecht & Kevin M. Dougherty retain their seats on the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. AFT locals endorsed them because keeping an independent court ensures elections remain free from partisan interference heading into the midterms. @aftpa.bsky.social

In NYC 📢We officially hit TWO MILLION votes - first time since 1969! 🗳️🗳️ Polls are open until 9pm.

These big wins will embolden Dems to take on Trump's lawbreaking and show there's a price for GOP enabling of him. Folks hate to hear this, but normal patterns are asserting themselves: Liberalism isn't dead, Rs are likely to lose in 2026, and Trump is really unpopular, not a magical exception.

This is fantastic! @senatorhashmi.bsky.social will be a great Lt Gov. She's a an accomplished leader and educator and I'm so glad that AFT members worked hard to get out the voter for her.

Congrats @mikiesherrill.bsky.social! Mikie has a proven history of working to make tax laws fairer, public schools stronger, healthcare more accessible, and the basics we depend on more affordable—and we know as governor she’ll continue that important work.

Congratulations @abigailspanberger.com! She focused on public schools, jobs and affordability. A stark contrast to the chaos in Washington. Voters sent a clear message today.

There's massive turnout in NYC. It’s not just here, I'm seeing it in NJ and hearing that voters are showing up across the country. This is good news, voters want change. They want people to focus on affordability and opportunity. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/n...

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social gets it. She knows that people are struggling with the cost of housing and living. She knows that workers deserve retirement security. She knows the value of public schools. That’s why we’re going door to door for her today.

Labor is doing the work. There were so many AFT and other AFL-CIO members canvassing today. This afternoon @lizshuler.bsky.social and I kicked off the final GOTV labor shift in Middlesex.

Thank you @frost.house.gov for continuing to fight to fix our broken healthcare system and make sure working families have the affordable, accessible healthcare they need to thrive. www.orlandosentinel.com/2025/11/02/c...

Trump and Congressional Republicans have created needless chaos for millions of kids, seniors, people with disabilities, and workers just trying to buy groceries and get by. It’s completely unacceptable. www.npr.org/2025/11/03/n...

Tens of millions of Americans – including nearly 1 million North Carolinians – are standing on the edge of a health care premium cliff. I was joined by State Sen. Gladys Robinson and small business owner Daniel Ayers to discuss why we must prevent premiums from skyrocketing:

Great conversation with Governor Newsom about what these elections really mean. youtu.be/VcOArzql9ZQ
